He Tiantian pulled Qi Xiaoyan into the house and whispered to her.
"Tsk tsk, married women are definitely different, look at that rosy cheeks." He Tiantian grinned mischievously. "Tell me, what are your thoughts on being newlyweds?"
"Go away, if you want to know what I think, you'll know once you get married." Qi Xiaoyan shoved He Tiantian's face away. "You're just deliberately trying to embarrass me!"
"Haha!" He Tiantian laughed, "The bride is shy, fine, don't tell me then!"
Qi Xiaoyan blushed and didn't want to continue this embarrassing topic, so she changed the subject and said, "Sister Tian, I've got a job. I'm working in the county's Public Security Bureau doing file management."
He Tiantian was taken aback and asked, "That's not right. In the army, you're a performing arts soldier who mainly sings. Even if you were assigned, you would be assigned to the propaganda department, not the archives department?"
“Work in the county is also a matter of one person per position. The propaganda department is full, both permanent and temporary, so I can’t get in,” Qi Xiaoyan said. “Although I have connections at home, I can’t get someone else out so I can get in.”
“I see.” He Tiantian nodded. “Although the Niu family has influence in the county, they can’t just ignore it. By the way, I remember Lin Xiaoru is also in the propaganda department, and Li Mingkai also works as a temporary worker in the winter.”
"Oh, you mean Lin Xiaoru? I've run into her a few times in the county town," Qi Xiaoyan said. "Although we know each other, we're not close. She greeted me, and I just said a few words in response. But she seemed quite pleased with herself; she must be doing well in the county's propaganda department."
"You've studied singing for several years, so you can't let it go to waste," He Tiantian reminded her, otherwise it would be a waste of her time, given how talented Qi Xiaoyan is at singing.
"I love singing, it's become a habit, and I'll continue to do so," Qi Xiaoyan said. Even if she doesn't have the opportunity to perform on stage in the future, she won't give up her hobby.
Suddenly I realized that schools in the county have reopened, so Qi Xiaoyan could definitely become a music teacher!
“Xiao Yan, I heard that schools in the county have reopened and there must be a shortage of teachers, especially music teachers. You could give it a try,” He Tiantian suggested. “That way you can have a job and practice singing. You’re a former soldier, and you sing revolutionary songs, so the school would definitely be happy to have you.”
Upon hearing this, Qi Xiaoyan beamed and said, "How come I didn't think of that before! I can not only sing, but also play the accordion and organ, and I can also play the flute, although I'm not very good at it."
“You’re quite talented,” He Tiantian said. “Why don’t you give it a try? Teaching people to sing is much better than dealing with a whole bunch of files.”
"Sister Tian, you're right to bring it." Qi Xiaoyan repeatedly agreed. After returning to the county town, she asked Niu Dajun for help.
As they were talking, the drunk Niu Dajun was taken to his room. Qi Xiaoyan had to take care of Niu Dajun, so He Tiantian had to say goodbye and leave, agreeing to continue chatting the next morning.
The following morning, Qi Xiaoyan and Qi Daniu came over to play with He Tiantian.
In the afternoon, Qi Xiaoyan and Niu Dajun returned to the county town.
Three days later, Qi Xiaoyan returned and told He Tiantian that she was now a music teacher at Taoyuan County No. 1 Middle School.
Being able to do what she loves, which is also her job, makes Qi Xiaoyan very happy.
Everything around them was perfect, and Huo Yingjie and He Tiantian's relationship grew stronger.
Because Huo Yingjie was there, He Tiantian even forgot about the Snake King, always feeling like something was missing. It wasn't until she got her period that He Tiantian realized she hadn't provided the Snake King with holy blood for a long time.
The Snake King once said that without holy blood, one cannot cultivate.
He Tiantian is currently living a happy life and wants to get married soon. She hopes to provide more sacred blood so that the Snake King can cultivate to perfection as soon as possible.
When He Tiantian arrived at the back mountain, she wanted to enter the cave, but she was bounced back and sat down on the ground with a thud.
"Brother Yingjie, why can't I get in?" He Tiantian sat on the ground, looking very aggrieved.
Huo Yingjie stepped forward and pulled He Tiantian up, but he would never tell her that he had set up another layer of protection outside.
No one but him can get in or out.
"Perhaps that little spirit snake is cultivating," Huo Yingjie said. "Since we can't go in, let's leave. It's too cold in the back mountain. Also, they're excavating an ancient tomb over there. If we stay here, we'll attract too much attention."
“But the Snake King hasn’t absorbed any holy blood for over two months,” He Tiantian said. “Without holy blood, he can’t cultivate.”
"Hmph!" Huo Yingjie's petty temper flared up again, and he turned his head away arrogantly.
Upon hearing this, He Tiantian knew that Huo Yingjie was jealous again, so she quickly went around to Huo Yingjie and asked, "Are you angry again?"
"No!" Huo Yingjie turned his head away, avoiding He Tiantian's eyes.
He Tiantian held Huo Yingjie's head in both hands, kissed his chin, and said, "Alright, don't be angry. If the Snake King can cultivate to perfection soon, we can get married sooner!"
Get married soon!
Huo Yingjie loves to hear that!
"With me here, how could I let you go through such hardship?" Huo Yingjie said softly. "I will help him get through the tribulation and send him back to the demon realm, so from now on you just need to keep an eye on me and think about me. I'll handle things on his end."
"Really?" He Tiantian asked excitedly, her eyes sparkling as she looked at Huo Yingjie with hope.
Huo Yingjie hugged He Tiantian and said, "Even if I have to lie to everyone else, I will never lie to you!"
He Tiantian really liked Yingjie's sweet words, which were both domineering and heartwarming.
“Okay, I believe you.” He Tiantian smiled. “Then let’s go and let the Snake King cultivate properly.”
Not long after they left, Cui Ying arrived at the place where Huo Yingjie and He Tiantian had just been talking.
"Senior brother, did you hear them talking just now?" Cui Ying frowned. Logically speaking, she and her senior brother were so close that she should have been able to hear them clearly.
But just now, they didn't hear anything.
Hua Shan was also deep in thought, then shook his head and said in a deep voice, "No, I didn't hear any sound! I only saw their mouths moving."
Hearing her senior's answer, Cui Ying frowned even more.
After a long while, Cui Ying asked, "Senior brother, do you think these two people are the experts we met the other day?"
Hua Shan neither nodded nor shook his head, because he wasn't sure either.
“I think that woman is a bit strange, and that man is even stranger,” Cui Ying said. “I can hardly sense anything unusual about him, but I can see a sense of detachment from the world in his expression and behavior.”
“Me too,” Hua Shan said. “But that’s not necessarily true. I heard from Wang Lei that Huo Yingjie is a very talented person. At the same time, he comes from a very good family, perhaps due to his family’s education and influence.”
"Yes, my uncle said we should stay in Qijia Village. We can investigate slowly later," Cui Ying said, adding that there would be plenty of time later.
